ANKARA, March 19 – RIA Novosti. By invading Iraq, the United States aimed to create a “Greater Kurdistan” project, the objective was not only Baghdad, but also Turkey, Russia and China, believes Turkish historian Mehmet Perincek. Russian President Vladimir Putin said earlier in a State of the Union address that the massive campaign of Western accusations against Russia appears to be designed to make everyone forget what the West itself has done by unleashing wars of aggression and plunging entire regions of the world into chaos. The Russian leader added that “no one in the world has forgotten that the West let the genie out of the bottle”. “The US invasion and occupation of Iraq is a clear example of how the United States relates to international law. The occupation was conducted entirely on lies and black propaganda Western media tried to portray the occupation in a favorable light 20 days before I was there in Iraq, I was invited by Saddam Hussein’s regime, I gave several speeches there, I witnessed how brazen Western media propaganda was towards Iraq. The US invasion of Iraq is an attempt to implement a project for a unipolar world. The objective was not only Iraq and the government of Saddam Hussein. It was an attempt to change the borders of 24 countries under the Greater Middle East project, which was part of the Greater Kurdistan project. This project was aimed at Turkey, in Russia, China,” he told RIA Novosti. The historian believes that the American project meant not only the dismemberment of Iraq, Turkey, Syria and Iran, but also all of Eurasia, ruled by Russia. “The creation of a certain bridgehead was implicit. The Arab Spring, which started in Libya and spread to Syria, was a kind of threat signal for Russia. The aim of the project is to obtain reserves in Central Asia. Unfortunately, Ankara then supported the project, not realizing that it was so or not, it is also directed against Turkey. After the American invasion of Iraq, the number of attacks terrorists in Turkey increased sharply. The dismemberment of Turkey was both then and now the objective of the United States United States, “said the historian. According to him, with the American invasion of Iraq, the The outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) woke up again.” This paved the way for the creation of the Islamic State*. Creating controlled chaos was the goal. It should also be pointed out that the United States began to use the instrument of sanctions for the first time, thus creating the ground for the invasion of Turkey has learned these lessons well, so it is no longer tied to any sanction against Russia,” Perincek pointed out. On February 5, 2003, then US Secretary of State Colin Powell at a meeting of the UN Security Council said that he had received information about Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein’s technologies for the production of biological weapons and demonstrated a test tube with white powder, which many concluded was an example of weapons of mass destruction produced in Iraq. A month later the United States invaded Iraq. Later it turned out that the CIA had misinformed the authorities, no biological weapons had been found in Iraq and the secretary of state explained that he showed a fake test tube to be persuaded asif. In January 2005, Powell resigned as US Secretary of State.* Terrorist organization, banned in Russia
